I am happy to report major success in the operation against the Nomads today. I am also pleased to report that every faction in the Omicrons and Rhienland stood together against our common enemy. Humanity was tested against the Nomads and not found wanting. Our ships were able to bring down the lead transports and 3 out of the four supporting transports. All in all I believe we cab fil this operation as a win in humanity's favor.
Before the operation DTR had musted a massive fleet to greet the Rhienlanders that were coming to the Omicrons to assist in the battle. However the Rhienland military did not show and instead a smaller fleet of Nomads showed. DTR engaged and the Montana assisted with the few Order ships in rotation. MND did show to assist in the fighting. However after the fighting ended some MND, DTR,
and one Order pilot decided to start fighting. I attempted to order the Order pilot back but it they did not listen and was shot down. There were also reports of MND firing upon Order forces during the Nomads transport attempt but these reports have not been confirmed by other units that where not the pilot in question. I might suggest contacting the Order's Rheinland contacts to see if this was on purpose or mere crossfire accident.
In other news the Montana's guns did claim two kills (One Ishtar and one Irra) during the fighting with the Nomads, and another two (an Irra and a siris) during today's operation. We are returning to Omicron Theta to assist the final waves of Nomads as they continue their transport runs.
